Analysis of Ancient Manuscript
I analyzed all four ancient manuscripts, The Bible of
Ethiopia, Lisbon Hebrew Bible, Baybars’ Magnificent Qur’an and the Outstanding
15th- Century Church Book I was amazed by all four texts. The design elements that were present even at
the 15th century were astonishing.
Every manuscript had an incredible amount of alignment, good use of
color and great use of contrast with the very different but limited colors. I also observed a staggering amount of
repetition for the time period in which these pieces were written. The ancient manuscripts were a work of
art. It is shocking that in all the time
we have improved our graphic abilities that in many ways these ancient works
are better than our new pieces. I was
astonished by the magnificent geometric patterns and how well they understood
the importance of all the graphic elements of contrast, repetition, alignment,
and proximity.
